Today is the 70th anniversary of the flag-raising on Iwo Jima during World War II. Photographer Joe Rosenthal captured the events on February 23, 1945. One of his images became one of the most recognizable photographs of the war. It was recreated in bronze for the Marine Corps...

Washington, DC offers so much opportunity when it comes to photography. My two favorite locations to shoot are without a doubt the US Capitol and the World War II Memorial. Both locations offer tremendous potential under any conditions, but they are in their prime at night. In...
